I was Buddhist, the community sucked, they’ve covered up a bunch of the standard religious atrocities, the groups I was involved with seem culty these days and they generally seem like mean selfish people claiming that those suffering hardship are “working through their bad karma” instead of actually helping. Rich white people performing Tibetan karaoke and lip service to sangha while ignoring the problems of the world that don’t personally affect them.

Sure, but the writing quality of the present day version is well above 13yo level.

So what’s the deal with the two versions of Solo Levelling? One set present day with cool abilities and monster fights and the medieval/fantasy set one that seems like it was written by a horny 13yo where characters recharge by cuddling chesty women?

Serotonin tweaking meds have made me feel the worst I’ve ever felt. Which was surprising given how bad I already felt at the time.

The poison is in the portion. Humans have lived off carbs for many years. Dogs evolved around humans to be able to digest our starchy leftover foods. I give my dog a spoonful of my porridge or brown rice and he’s fine. I stop him eating whole slices of pizza we find on walkies as its too much.

In Australia it’s an acceptable term, eg the movie “The Wog Boy”. In London it’s akin n to the n-word and not appropriate, I think London uses it as an abbreviation of golliwog, those racist dolls.

Bihar is a shit hole by Indian standards. I did medical volunteer work there for three months ten years ago. Even Indians I meet in Australia tell me they’d never go there.
